  • NY ACKER Awards Is Taken from an Archaic Dutch Word Meaning a Noticeable Movement in a Stream
    1 THE NYC ACKER AWARDS CREATOR & PRODUCER CLAYTON PATTERSON This is our 6th successful year of the ACKER Awards. The meaning of ACKER in the NY ACKER Awards is taken from an archaic Dutch word meaning a noticeable movement in a stream. The stream is the mainstream and the noticeable movement is the avant grade. By documenting my community, on an almost daily base, I have come to understand that gentrification is much more than the changing face of real estate and forced population migrations. The influence of gen- trification can be seen in where we live and work, how we shop, bank, communicate, travel, law enforcement, doctor visits, etc. We will look back and realize that the impact of gentrification on our society is as powerful a force as the industrial revolution was. I witness the demise and obliteration of just about all of the recogniz- able parts of my community, including so much of our history. I be- lieve if we do not save our own history, then who will. The NY ACKERS are one part of a much larger vision and ambition. A vision and ambition that is not about me but it is about community. Our community. Our history. The history of the Individuals, the Outsid- ers, the Outlaws, the Misfits, the Radicals, the Visionaries, the Dream- ers, the contributors, those who provided spaces and venues which allowed creativity to flourish, wrote about, talked about, inspired, mentored the creative spirit, and those who gave much, but have not been, for whatever reason, recognized by the mainstream.

  • Andy Warhol￢ﾀﾙs Deaths and the Assembly-Line Autobiography
    OCAD University Open Research Repository Faculty of Liberal Arts & Sciences and School of Interdisciplinary Studies 2011 Andy Warhol’s Deaths and the Assembly-Line Autobiography Charles Reeve OCAD University [email protected] © University of Hawai'i Press | Available at DOI: 10.1353/bio.2011.0066 Suggested citation: Reeve, Charles. “Andy Warhol’s Deaths and the Assembly-Line Autobiography.” Biography 34.4 (2011): 657–675. Web. ANDY WARHOL’S DEATHS AND THE ASSEMBLY-LINE AUTOBIOGRAPHY CHARLES REEVE Test-driving the artworld cliché that dying young is the perfect career move, Andy Warhol starts his 1980 autobiography POPism: The Warhol Sixties by refl ecting, “If I’d gone ahead and died ten years ago, I’d probably be a cult fi gure today” (3). It’s vintage Warhol: off-hand, image-obsessed, and clever. It’s also, given Warhol’s preoccupation with fame, a lament. Sustaining one’s celebrity takes effort and nerves, and Warhol often felt incapable of either. “Oh, Archie, if you would only talk, I wouldn’t have to work another day in my life,” Bob Colacello, a key Warhol business functionary, recalls the art- ist whispering to one of his dachshunds: “Talk, Archie, talk” (144). Absent a talking dog, maybe cult status could relieve the pressure of fame, since it shoots celebrities into a timeless realm where their notoriety never fades. But cults only reach diehard fans, whereas Warhol’s posthumously pub- lished diaries emphasize that he coveted the stratospheric stardom of Eliza- beth Taylor and Michael Jackson—the fame that guaranteed mobs wherever they went. (Reviewing POPism in the New Yorker, Calvin Tomkins wrote that Warhol “pursued fame with the single-mindedness of a spawning salmon” [114].) Even more awkwardly, cult status entails dying—which means either you’re not around to enjoy your notoriety or, Warhol once nihilistically pro- posed, you’re not not around to enjoy it.

  • The Films of Andy Warhol Stillness, Repetition, and the Surface of Things
    The Films of Andy Warhol Stillness, Repetition, and the Surface of Things David Gariff National Gallery of Art If you wish for reputation and fame in the world . take every opportunity of advertising yourself. — Oscar Wilde In the future everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes. — attributed to Andy Warhol 1 The Films of Andy Warhol: Stillness, Repetition, and the Surface of Things Andy Warhol’s interest and involvement in film ex- tends back to his childhood days in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Warhol was sickly and frail as a youngster. Illness often kept him bedridden for long periods of time, during which he read movie magazines and followed the lives of Hollywood celebri- ties. He was an avid moviegoer and amassed a large collection of publicity stills of stars given out by local theaters. He also created a movie scrapbook that included a studio portrait of Shirley Temple with the handwritten inscription: “To Andrew Worhola [sic] from Shirley Temple.” By the age of nine, Warhol had received his first camera. Warhol’s interests in cameras, movie projectors, films, the mystery of fame, and the allure of celebrity thus began in his formative years. Many labels attach themselves to Warhol’s work as a filmmaker: documentary, underground, conceptual, experi- mental, improvisational, sexploitation, to name only a few. His film and video output consists of approximately 650 films and 4,000 videos. He made most of his films in the five-year period from 1963 through 1968. These include Sleep (1963), a five- hour-and-twenty-one minute look at a man sleeping; Empire (1964), an eight-hour film of the Empire State Building; Outer and Inner Space (1965), starring Warhol’s muse Edie Sedgwick; and The Chelsea Girls (1966) (codirected by Paul Morrissey), a double-screen film that brought Warhol his greatest com- mercial distribution and success.

Ultra Violet V.O.: “It’s really Cinema Realité” Taylor Mead V.O.:” We were ‘outré’, avant garde” Brigid Berlin V.O.: “On drugs, on speed, on amphetamine” Mary Woronov V.O.: “He was an enabler” Nico V.O.:” He had the guts to save the Velvet Underground” Lou Reed V.O.: “They hated the music” David Croland V.O.: “People were stealing his work left and right” Viva V.O.: “I think he’s Queen of the pop art.” (laugh). Candy Darling V.O.: “A glittering façade” Ivy Nicholson V.O.: “Silver goes with stars” Andy Warhol: “I don’t have any favorite color because I decided Silver was the only thing around.” Billy Name: This is the factory, and it’s something that you can’t recreate. As when we were making films there with the actual people there, making art there with the actual people there. And that’s my cat, Ruby. Imagine living and working in a place like that! It’s so cool, isn’t it? Ultra Violet: OK. I was born Isabelle Collin Dufresne, and I became Ultra violet in 1963 when I met Andy Warhol. Then I turned totally violet, from my toes to the tip of my hair. And to this day, what’s amazing, I’m aging, but my hair is naturally turning violet.

    AUTOMAT PICTURES “I AM DIVINE” MARCH 15, 2013 TRANSCRIBED BY: WORD OF MOUTH (RL) [FILM CLIP] [01:00:06] VOICEOVER : It was a Hollywood gala in Charm City tonight as Baltimore’s politicians, movie stars and counter culture turned out en masse for world premiere of John Waters’ latest film Hairspray. [01:00:29] MINK STOLE : It was a very exciting night. There was a real charge in the air. People were liking the movie. [01:00:36] MALE : We were so excited about it and thrilled that we had accomplished it. DENNIS DERMODY : We thought this is it. This is the one that Divine has been working towards. MINK STOLE : He was there, he looked wonderful and he was so proud. [FILM CLIP] I Am Divine - 2 NEWS REPORTER : In one sentence, can you sum up this movie experience? DIVINE : This is Divine, yeah. It’s great. It’s the greatest night for me in a long time. I love every minute of it.

  • Gay Gotham Exhibition Reveals How New Y... Underground Changed
    OUTWARD EXPANDING THE LGBTQ CONVERSATION NOV. 2 2016 1:42 PM Gay Gotham Reveals How a City’s Queer Underground Changed American Culture By Miz Cracker From left: Whitney Elite, Ira Ebony, Stewart and Chris LaBeija, Ian and Jamal Adonis, Ronald Revlon. House of Jourdan Ball, New Jersey, 1989. Chantal Regnault Last month, The Museum of the City of New York mounted Gay Gotham, an exhibition that tells the story of New Yor k City’s thriving and influential queer cultural underground. Encompassing more than eight decades of history, Gay Gotham gathers a rt works, printed matter like novels and newsletters, and other ephemera to reveal how queer artists and queer social networks have impacted the cultural landscape of both the city and America more broadly. Presenting period-specific maps and documentary photographs, the exhibition locates and draws connections between queer icons and the “gayborhoods” they called home, allowing us to contemplate how past generations of LGBTQ people carved out a space for the queer culture we take for granted today. I spoke with co-curator Stephen Vider about Gay Gotham, specifically why the exhibition focuses on the years between 1910 and 1995. Why not include the present moment of queer visibility, in which New York City is certainly an important player? For Vider and co- curator Donald Albrecht, there was someth ing more powerful in exploring the period when gay culture was less visible, forced underground—but still somehow shaping American life. DYKE, A Quarterlyflyer, design by Liza Cowan. 1974. Liza Cowan and Penny House Advertisement “We decided to begin in 1910, the moment when you really start to see the emergence of queer communities in two neighborhoods in New York—Greenwich Village and Harlem,” Vider explained.
